EZ POWER!!!

[buttugly]

Installed edge EZ... well worth the bucks with first test drive and no trailer. My truck woke up! I have a question. . boost with EZ is 20#,did not install wastegate elbow yet. What are the effects after install and is it worth it?

22lbs for me so far--but I think the ol' lift pump isn't so hot-dang thang drops to 2 psi at WOT--idles at 9-13 and is all over the board most other times unless I'm steady with the pedal then 9-13 psi again and sometimes the red light flashes--so in goes the Holley shortly and then we'll see if I get a little more boost--

csutton , i assume you will be replacing lines also ? adding the holley and leaving the banjo arrangement will gain you little . if you haven't bought the pump yet remove your fuel lines , the banjo fitting is the restriction , pop off the lines and drill the holes in the fittings larger , be careful and do it in steps the fitting is brass , USE LOTS OF OIL , i don't have the final number but i think you will end up around or larger than 5/16 , not the 3/8ths that the line is .

I don't think the boost elbow will work with your truck. You have the HY35 turbo which is hardlined. See this link for a simple way to disable your wastegate:

I'm seeing about 28 psi max with this setup and EZ.

So the EZ elbow only disables wastgate on the ETH and not the ETC?

I'm not sure about the 5 speeds, but on the autos, there is a hardline connection between the compressor and the wastegate actuator head. If you have a flexible line between the actuator and the compressor, you can use the boost elbow.

Mopar Muscle--thanks--got the upgraded lines and pump installed last night & she fired up after 4 ignition ons & 2 short crank sessions--pressure holding steady at 10-11 psi-but need to take her out for a test drive--wife taking relative to airport right now so I got the kids---chris

Mopar or Chris, Can you give me a rundown of what you did to your fuel lines? I am at that point (see sig and add HX40 and 4").
Thanks
